Calypso, Mento and Chutney get often overshadowed by Reggae and Soca when thinking about islands sounds. This volume of Ticks And Clicks brings forward some awesome lesser-known music from West-Indies.

The mix starts with Rafael De Leon’s AKA Roaring Lion’s Long Ago Carnival, a Trinidad classic which he recorded first time in the late 1930’s under the name J’ouvert Barrio. This version is from 1976 and it tells about carnival in Trinidad. Amazing stuff.

Next there is two late 1950’s calypsos, Lord Cristo’s Jonathan, a crazy story about a guy faking his own death and Lloyd Simmons and Esso Steel Band’s Weed, a song about botanicals seller featuring steel-pans, instruments native to Trinidad and Tobago. During the time oil-drums were usually stolen to create these instruments so to stop that the oil companies started to sponsor the bands with empty barrels so they had bands with name of oil companies. Both songs are from Cook record label by legendary inventor and soundman Emory Cook. Cook created his own portable record presses and recording technologies and traveled Trinidad archiving the music he loved. Recordings are ruff but without him these sounds would have probably never been heard outside the islands.

Next the mix moves to Jamaica and Mento sound of Count Lasher with Font Hill Duppy where Lasher combines his Mento style singing with reggae beat telling a story about the famous foul-mouthed duppy of Font Hill. Big Souls’s Jamaican Girls is a rare single by Albert Moonahset with the cool country style Mento vibe.

Mix stays in Jamaica with Laurel Aitkens relaxed calypso-ode to cricket from 1964. Rudeboy for life Aitken did ska, r’n’b, rock and roll, reggae, soul and calypso in Jamaica and later went to UK and became a skinhead reggae boss and a legend.  Next comes Trinidadian Lord Kitchener, one of the grand chiefs of Calypso and his 60’s hit Jamaican Woman. Mighty Sparrow, master lyricist and Calypso heavyweight is presented here with his 1976 dancefloor Soca/Calypso monster Witch Doctor which tells about the Obeah voodoo of the islands.

Next some Chutney sounds. Chutney being a Soca subgenre with strong East-Indian influences. About 35% of the population of Trinidad and Tobago can trace their ancestry to Indian immigrant workers. Lennox Picou’s mad Indrani is obscure 7” single covering Lord Shorty’s classic tune. Sundar Popo was honored as the king of Chutney and here in his 1974 single he sings about his love for scorpion gyal. Massive.

Mix ends with one of my very favourite calypsos of all time with Panamanian Lord Cobra’s stunning Negro Heart, a deep black anthem and a calypso commentary on interracial organ transplanting. Record is rare as hell and the song includes awesome ukulele solo.

NIGHT DRIVE (intro)

Reggae is a music genre that originated in Jamaica in the late 1960s. The term also denotes the modern popular music of Jamaica and its diaspora.[1] A 1968 single by Toots and the Maytals, "Do the Reggay" was the first popular song to use the word "reggae", effectively naming the genre and introducing it to a global audience.[2][3] While sometimes used in a broad sense to refer to most types of popular Jamaican dance music, the term reggae more properly denotes a particular music style that was strongly influenced by traditional mento as well as American jazz and rhythm and blues, especially the New Orleans R&B practiced by Fats Domino and Allen Toussaint, and evolved out of the earlier genres ska and rocksteady.[4] Reggae usually relates news, social gossip, and political commentary. Reggae spread into a commercialized jazz field, being known first as "rudie blues", then "ska", later "blue beat", and "rock steady".[5] It is instantly recognizable from the counterpoint between the bass and drum downbeat and the offbeat rhythm section. The immediate origins of reggae were in ska and rocksteady; from the latter, reggae took over the use of the bass as a percussion instrument.

DJ Chilly Presents Vintage Reggae [The Chilltage] Vol.5

It’s called “The Closer We Get,” and I’m proud to say I wrote this song with the fantastic saxophonist/producer Darren Rahn, who has really become a big star in his own right. Darren and I wrote this tune to be the kind of song you put on and hopefully, it just takes you away…without a care in the world. It’s a romantic song for sure, but the inspiration is also firmly rooted in the quarantine, in that we’ve all had to find new ways to be close to the ones we love in this very surreal time. The pandemic has shown us you don’t really need to be WITH someone to feel close to them.
